Disney Outside the Parks

Disney Magic Far from the Parks

For anyone looking for a blissfully peaceful and beautiful beach vacation plus the “Disney difference”, the good news is that two of my very favorite vacation destinations are the perfect solution – Disney’s Hilton Head Island Resort in South Carolina, and Disney’s Vero Beach Resorts on the “treasure coast” of Florida. Both resorts offer the usual sand and sea that make a beach vacation a perfect place to relax and have fun. But when you add in those “extras” that you’ll find at Walt Disney World or Disneyland in California, the result is a magical combination. Disney details and service, but without any park stress? Sounds perfect doesn’t it! Read more

Disney Learning at Home

With everything going on in the world these days, it’s an understatement to say that we’ve all had to make some adjustments and likely experienced our fair share of disappointments. From cancelled vacations to postponed celebrations and everything in between, we’re all adapting to this pandemic in one way or another. Personally, I’ve postponed what was supposed to be my first kid-free (since having kids) trip to Walt Disney World Resort to celebrate a milestone birthday. In the meantime, I’ve also transitioned from a full-time professional who worked outside of the home to temporarily being a full-time stay-at-home mom, teacher, lunch lady, and more.

During this strange season of life, we are learning how to become remote learners and teachers. Thank goodness for the internet, which has an endless supply of ideas to entertain, engage, and educate young students. Since we can’t physically be at Walt Disney World right now, we can bring some of the magic to life here at home and I’m sharing some of our favorite finds so far. Read more

As we all wait and dream about our next Disney vacation, there are lots of fun things to do at home to keep that Disney spirit alive! With this in mind, I am re-running an article from several years ago, with a super fun activity to do with your children that is PERFECT for some great family Disney time (and possibly some learning that you can sneak in there as well?) Enjoy and stay well! 

*****************************************

As we all know (and regret), you cannot realistically spend every day at Walt Disney World. Whether we are enjoying time at the Walt Disney World Resort, wallowing in post-vacation blues, in the planning stages of our next trip, or just looking forward to the next Disney movie, Disney is never too far from our minds.  Read more

12079839_10101848607632554_779886855405945696_oNow that it’s October, it feels like fall is really in full swing. With our most recent trip 5 months behind us, we are definitely all missing Walt Disney World. Our next trip will take place in the fall and Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is going to be at the top of our to-do list. Since that’s not happening this year, we have to come up with creative ways to keep the magic alive while we’re over a thousand miles away from Mickey and all of his fun festivities.  Read more
